For the first time on one CD, Raven presents two essential albums from the vibrant NATALIE COLE: Inseparable (1975) and Unpredictable (1977). Her Capitol Records debut Inseparable was a major chart success (Billboard R&B #1) and has been unavailable for many years, while the platinum selling Unpredictable (Billboard Pop #8) has amazingly never appeared on CD before now. The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie forged a successful career during the 1970s, releasing a string of popular albums in the soul/R&B vein. Working with writer/producer team Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy, Cole created two of her finest LPs in Inseparable and Unpredictable. The first features a versatile mixture of upbeat contemporary numbers and Aretha Franklin styled churchified testimonies and ballads in which her voice takes center stage. It yielded two R&B #1s with the joyous gospel-drenched 'This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)' (also Pop #6) and the hit ballad 'Inseparable'. She walked away that year with two Grammy Awards (Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best New Artist). Unpredictable kept up the standard with another R&B #1 hit 'I've Got Love on My Mind' and the exuberant 'Party Lights'. With superb audio quality and detailed liner notes by AMG writer Andy Kellman this outstanding '2-for-1' captures two of Natalie Cole's finest soul albums.
